Biphenyl is a solid at room temperature, with a melting point of 69.2 °C (156.6 °F). In the gas phase the molecule exists in two enantiomorphic twisted forms with an angle between the planes of the two rings of 44.4(2)°. [6] In the room-temperature solid, biphenyl is crystalline with space group P2 1 /c, which does not allow for chiral ...
The density varies from 1.182 to 1.566 g/cm 3. ... PCBs generate incombustible gases. ... is known as bioremediation of polychlorinated biphenyl.
Even a complete 2-dimensional carbon sheet with biphenylene-like subunits has been proposed [20] and was in-depth investigated by theoretical means, finding a technologically relevant direct band gap of ca. 1 eV, excitonic binding energies of ca. 500 meV and potential as a gas sensor.
Bisphenol A (BPA) is a chemical compound primarily used in the manufacturing of various plastics.It is a colourless solid which is soluble in most common organic solvents, but has very poor solubility in water.

Benzene, toluene, and xylenes can be made by various processes. However, most BTX production is based on the recovery of aromatics derived from the catalytic reforming of naphtha in a petroleum refinery.
A Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) is a class of organic compounds that is composed of multiple aromatic rings.Most are produced by the incomplete combustion of organic matter— by engine exhaust fumes, tobacco, incinerators, in roasted meats and cereals, [1] or when biomass burns at lower temperatures as in forest fires.
4-Cyano-4'-pentylbiphenyl is a commonly used nematic liquid crystal with the chemical formula C 18 H 19 N. It frequently goes by the common name 5CB. 5CB was first synthesized by George William Gray, Ken Harrison, and J.A. Nash at the University of Hull in 1972 and at the time it was the first member of the cyanobiphenyls.
